"Hay tantas historias para enriquecer la narrativa general". -Matt Kendall, bibliotecario de archivos
History Happy Hour is a collaboration between Yakima Valley Libraries and Gilbert Cellars. From March 12 through July 9, the winery’s tasting room will host Carlos Pelley, Archive Librarian of our Sala de lectura noroeste, to present a monthly series on Yakima Valley’s diverse history.
Join us to learn stories and view historic imagery from YVL’s archives on local women’s, Japanese American, agricultural, pride, and Latino(a) histories. Pelley and his colleague Matt Kendall curated the interactive presentations from over 50 primary sources and secondary sources.
